Time to Believe is a campaign by the Invisible Disabilities Association. People living with invisible disabilities are often disbelieved, because they can't readily "see" their illness or pain. We strive to bring awareness and education, so people will believe and support friends, family, co-workers and strangers living with invisible disabilities!

Parkinson's Disease - Disability Awareness

Perfect for people with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome to spread awareness about this chronic illness. Features a skeleton falling apart.

As someone with a complicated pituitary disorder, I have to take a LOT of medications to replace the many crucial hormones my body can't make on its own. Over the years, I've had a few "helpful" "wellness experts" tell me that I would "feel so much better" if I wasn't "taking so many pills". Y'all, these miracles of modern medicine keep me ALIVE. Keep your uncalled for advice to yourself before you really hurt somebody. This design was inspired by that, and all the other uncalled for judgements of anyone who takes any medications to manage their disease, chronic pain, depression, whatever. I see you, spoonies. We've got enough going on without the being judged by others for taking care of ourselves. This one's for you.
